WHAT INSURANCE DO I NEED WHEN I DRIVE FOR LYFT OR UBER?

Lyft and Uber only cover rideshare drivers during Periods 2 and 3. Period 2 starts once you accept a pickup request and are driving to pick up your passenger. Period 3 starts once your passenger enters your car. However when you’re online and waiting for a request during Period 1, you have no collision coverage from Lyft or Uber and much lower liability limits. So as a rideshare driver, you’re most at risk during Period 1 since you won’t get any collision coverage from rideshare companies and your personal insurance company likely won’t cover you during this time either.

Rideshare insurance solves this gap by covering drivers during Period 1, and equally as important they won’t drop you for being a rideshare driver.
